Beowulf

Great interpretation of the classic story. Damn good visuals, music and performances.

Easily the best motion capture film Robert Zemeckis (Tales from the Crypt, Used Cars) has made. The character animation is a bit wonky but the willingness to push the PG-13 rating, respectfulness to the source material, solid acting and epic score by frequent collaborator Alan Silvestri (Amazing Stories, Cop and ½)

Beautifully animated. The characters are depicted with seemingly real emotions. Some are better than real human actors. Good story telling.

Just a wonderful visual feast.

I suggest be in the imagination mindset. And at 7 mins into the movie In my opinion the best CGI/ GRAPHICS OF anything character of the movie. At seven mins in you see a real realistic animation of a 🐶

As a viewer who has never seen this movie, I think my viewpoint is a fresh, unbiased opinion. My first reaction was "what is wrong with Beowulf's face...really bad CGI"? 2nd, Angelina Jolie CGI looks great but her dialogue is comical. Even the great Anthony Hopkins' dialogue and acting seems mis-directed. So, bad CGI, bad dialogue, comical acting, no direction and an Omen-like soundtrack...Oof, a stinker. I see some viewers gave it 5 stars, a masterpiece...Why? And why is the name Beowulf said every 2 minutes? It is like the Director is desperate to make the name legendary...in case you forget the movie's title. With such a stellar cast, legendary story and a veteran director, how did they manage to botch it so badly? It makes me want to scan YouTube for "The Making of..." to see what factors accounted for this stinker.

whoa whoa whoa this was severely underrated! loved it.

A fantastically entertaining ride which doesnt hold back in terms of violence and adult themes. Animation still holds up today and the story telling is 2nd to none. Is held back in places by some phoned in performances by the likes of John Malcovitch who just seemed bored but Rey Winstone and Anthony Hopkins where fanstastic. Would recommed to anyone and will hold its own against the likes of 300 or dare I say it Gladiator.

This movie is the best screen adaptation of Beowulf.

The script isn't bad but the animation is really distracting.
